No more hamming it up for Miss Gravy the pig as she retires from Montgomery Biscuits

Miss Gravy, the live pig mascot for the Montgomery Biscuits minor league baseball team, is set to retire in the next few weeks.

Miss Gravy--also affectionately called the Duchess of Pork--joined the baseball organization in 2014 with help from the Alabama Department of Agriculture and Industries. A special "Name the Pig" contest gave her the Miss Gravy moniker.

The mascot has been a favorite of fans, especially children, in her two seasons and has often posed with little girls on Princess Night.

Now, she's retiring to a farm outside Wetumpka, Ala., outside Montgomery, but will make planned occasional appearances back at the ballpark.

"When Miss Gravy approached me about retiring from her job as the Biscuits live mascot, I wasn't surprised. She has embraced pig life! While she grazes on fruits and vegetables, she has had more than her fair share of biscuits. She loves to run loose in centerfield and often is counterproductive to our groundskeeper. We love her, but we realize a dugout view isn't best for her."
